Nothing in all creation is hidden from God’s sight; everything is uncovered and exposed before the eyes of Him to whom we must give account.There is no creature that is hidden from his sight, but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account.Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.And there is no creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and laid open before the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

… sword. It penetrates to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow. It judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account. Therefore, since we have a great high priest who has ascended into heaven, Jesus, the son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith that we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are, yet he did not sin. Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. Now we get a new picture of Jesus. Matthew tells us that Jesus said that he is gentle and lowly of heart, but Hebrews adds to us and tells us that Jesus is our great high priest. …
… Hebrews 4, 13, nothing in all creation is hidden from God's sight. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of him to whom we must give an account. And so there's Achan, getting back to his tent, relieved, trying to cover his tracks, buries the treasure, puts the dirt back on top, stamps it down, and thinks he's good. And the next morning he wakes up to tension in the camp. He could tell there's commotion, there's something going on. The people's hearts are melting with fear. and Joshua's told, bring everybody. Here's the process God gives them. Bring everybody together, and we're gonna go tribe by tribe, clan by clan, family by family, and figure out who did this, and you go, why would God do that? He's God. Why don't you just go, hey, Joshua, it was Achan. I don't know. Maybe to give Achan time to repent because he's a merciful God, or maybe to make sure that the whole camp understood the seriousness of sin. …
… saying that you don't only have a God who stands high above the hard things in your life. You have a God who became a human and did the hard thing. The book of Hebrews chapter 4, verse 13, about verse 13, says something very interesting. He says that that's not the right verse. I don't know what the verse is. There it is, verse 14 that I gave you earlier. Since we have a great high priest… Everybody say, Jesus is high, who has ascended into heaven. This is after his resurrection. Jesus, the Son of God, let us hold firmly to the faith we profess. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to empathize with our weaknesses, but we have one who has been tempted in every way, just as we are, yet he did not sin. Here's your shouting verse. Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence. somebody shout he's here so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of success our time of blessing our time of wholeness our time of completeness all of that is true too but if you are in the hour of need right now i know a name that is greater than your need i don't care what need you name. Name cancer. Name bankruptcy. Name divorce. Name hatred. Name evil. …
… Nobody escapes. Hebrews 4.13, there is no creature hidden from His sight, but all things are laid bare to His eyes. He sees everything in His church. Nothing is hidden. There are no secrets. His assessment of His church and every individual in it is an accurate one. And though He intercedes for the church and will not allow them to be lost, He will never stop loving them. He will never stop securing them. That does not mean that He is indifferent to their sin, because here you have the penetrating eyes of omniscience and divine wisdom and purity, searching out sin in the church. And how does He react when He finds it? Verse 15, His feet were like burnished bronze when it has been made to glow in a furnace. That's very threatening. Those who ruled were always in elevated thrones, and the people below them were below their feet. The Lord is present in His church to fellowship with His church, to intercede for His church, but He's also present in His church to discipline His church. …
… Let the phrase Word of God sink into you. Hebrews 4, verse 13, For the Word of God is quick and powerful, sharper than any two-edged sword. You know what the word quick is? It's the word we get our word zoology from, or zoo. It's zoan. It's alive. and powerful. Do you know what that means? It's the word energis. It's the word we get our word energy from. The Bible throbs. It pulsates with energy. It is the Word of God. Quick and powerful. Speaks of its awesome power. You see, look, we're converted by the Word. Let me just tell you some things the Word does. We're converted by the Word. First Peter 1, verses 22 and 23. Peter says, being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible by the word of God. You are impregnated. with the Word of God. Being born not of corruptible seed, sperm, but of incorruptible, by the Word of God, which liveth and abideth forever. You see, you're converted by the Word. …
